1. It is wise gesture for us (brothers and sisters in the Holy Spirit) to begin re-assessing or reflecting ourselves and indirectly express our love to one another as we wait for the coming of the Divine Spirit...
2. There shall be more calamities ahead of us...

Chile: Puyehue volcano erupts forcing mass evacuation
A volcano has erupted in southern Chile, forcing the evacuation of hundreds of people living nearby.
Large columns of smoke have been seen rising from the Puyehue volcano, about 800km (500 miles) south of the capital Santiago.
Witnesses also reported a strong smell of ash and sulphur. A dozen small earthquakes were recorded before the eruption began.
The officials have issued a red alert - the maximum warning level for the area.
Evacuation orders were issued for some 3,500 people, the local authorities said.
They added that the residents would be relocated in shelters in safe areas.
So far there have been no reports of any injuries.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck off the Kermadec Islands, northeast of New Zealand, the U.S. Geological Survey reported on Wednesday.
The quake, initially reported as a magnitude 7.9, triggered a tsunami warning for New Zealand, the Kermadec Islands and Tonga, the U.S. Pacific Tsunami Center said.
It struck at 7:03 a.m. on Thursday (1903 GMT on Wednesday) at the epicenter, 131 miles east of Raoul Island, part of the Kermadec archipelago, and was only 30 miles deep, the USGS said.
The U.S. Pacific Tsunami Center said as it issued the tsunami warning that it did not yet know whether an actual tsunami had developed but said that if it had, it would hit East Cape in New Zealand within two hours and Auckland within three hours of the quake.
